“Hey Shirai, it’s me.” I woke up as a knock came at the door. “Thanks for waking me up.” I groggily said. Kiyoomi sighed, pulling me downstairs to the dining room where everyone else was already seated and eating. “Oh, Shirai, it’s good to see that you’ve slept well, how about you wash your hands and eat dinner with us.” Mom spoke, giving a smile. I washed my hands and then sat with everyone else. Dinner was awfully quiet, everyone just shared glances and ate. I sent a look to Kiyoomi to my right and he just shrugged, continuing to eat. “We’re expecting a baby soon.” My sister-in-law spoke up, smiling and glancing at Hito. My father was the first to speak. “You both really aren’t wasting time, congratulations!” He boomed, patting Hito’s shoulder. Hito just shrugged with a grin on his face. “Your sister is also expecting a baby girl.” Mom beamed, clasping her hands together. We continued to talk back and forth before we decided it was getting late. As Kiyoomi and I walk to our vehicles we’re stopped by Kazuya. “Shirai, we need to talk, please.” He says with a pleading expression. I stiffened a bit before brushing past him, Kiyoomi glaring at him as we did so. I didn’t want anything to do with that guy, I regretted ever speaking with someone like him.
